We hear a great deal of complaint about the scarcity of freight teams and pack trains and the high price of freight which IS being maintained between Prescott and the mines. It IS also ru- mored that several of our freighters have combined to hold up the prices to high figure thinking they can take advantage of the necessities of those who are putting large moneyed enterprises into the county, and bleed them. If this is SO they should be severely "sat upon" by onr business men and citizens. It is their duty to encourage and not re- tard progress. There are good propects for a great deal of work in this line here this summer and it would seem a good place for freighters and pack trains to come to from other parts of the terri tory
Arizona weekly journal-miner., 1887-05-04

IL is charged, and on the face of i, with an apparent degree of truth, that a combination of freighters has been ef- tected here to raise the price of freight from Prescott to Alexandria and vicln- i,y. There are at present five car loads ot machinery al the depot awaiting ship ment and abou, five more to arrive for Diamond lo. The price asked by frelghters IS from S275 to s co per cwt. the distance being B miles. Between Prescott and Ash Fork, be . fore the railroad was built, distance of s6 miles, the price of wagon transpor tation was from $ cents 10 $I. 50 per cwt and at times of extremely muddy roads as high as S2.oo. While not de siring to dictate to freighters sched- lie of prices as an outside party i, loo'<s T, though the prices asked were ra'.her ex orbitant. The distance can Certainly be covered as easily as it could formrely ,c Ash Fork. Abortion oftb;.s road is prett, heavy grades but the entire distance i: less than two,hirds the distance to the latter place. Should the combination continues 1t will force parties to bring ir other freighting outfits, as the railroad people have become interested in it anc have expressed determination to brins outfits in free of cost. After the enter- prise Of Diamond Jo IS in operation it + estimated that 1t will furnish at least ter tons, a car load per week, of concen trates for Prescott There is now { large quantity Of ore in that and interven ing districts awaiting shipment to Pres colt. so that at the present time, a good pe-centage of back freight could be obtained.
Arizona weekly journal-miner., 1887-05-04

For a comparatively small expenditure a road could be built so that this camp could be reached by drive of not over thirty-two miles; whereas they now have to dive something over foriy-seven miles. The item Of freight expense alone is considerable. The intention of the proper paItIes has. heen called to this mater often enough, but the proposition seems to hang ire and drag unreason- ably. The short route should have been constructed months ago. It IS to be hoped that our people will wake up to their duty in these matters, and that everybody Tn the community will pull together to get the fullest advantage pos sible from the era of prosperity which IS upon us.

The subject of deherning cattle IS be ing discussed by the newspapers.

The prospect of rais- ing a race of cattle which cannot hook summer boarders, or run fisherman and sporsmen out of meadows at 2;4o gait. is too tempting to be cast aside for a mere sentiment.
